Character recognition result display area

The results of character recognition of the drawing content are displayed as a string.

If you cannot draw ink with pen input operations, it may be because multiple pen input devices are recognized and the [Target Pen Device] setting does not match the pen input device you are actually using.
Please open the settings screen and check the [Target Pen Device] setting. (See: Common Setting)
